25.01.2022 A Walking Exhibition at You Are Here 2017 is opening tomorrow at 6pm at Anvil Design Studio. Come and visit us, you will have the chance to watch Monument, the brand new work by Alex Hobba (Lorna McFadyen): inspired by basic experiences (like a weather so cold and severe to shake the understanding of the body) it explores new environments, playback of events, expansion and compression of time.

25.01.2022 Come and have a look at A walking exhibition at YouAreHere festival on Lonsdale street! We're at Anvil Design Studio, SKEEHAN Studio, ex Autolyse, Eye Candy Optical, Barrio Collective Coffee, today from 5pm to 10pm and Saturday and Sunday from 12pm to 5pm! Don't miss the fabolous works by Luke Aleksandrow, Oscar Capezio, Nathan Gray, Heath Franco, Angela Tiatia, Alex Hobba, Shags and Tony Curran!

23.01.2022 Ironic and anti narrative actions are a big part of A Walking Exhibition - Working Title by Oscar Capezio (2014) is shot in the aisles of Masters - The Home Improvement Superstore, and shows the genesis and destruction of "interim sculptures" constructed from common building materials pulled directly from the shelves, presented and then quickly deconstructed and made to disappear by the capricious hand of the artist.

22.01.2022 A Walking Exhibition at You Are Here is opening next Wednesday! This is a still from Angela Tiatia work, Woman’s Movement (2016): physical movements and objects associated with iconic female singers' videos are re-enacted by anonymous female performers.Through repeated efforts to perfect these movements, the figures are shown in various states of failure and exhaustion to rehumanise, repoliticise and decolonise the body from the pervading prescriptions of pop culture.

22.01.2022 Another fantastic work in A Walking Exhibition, Back in yer box by Shagsy Shags. Back in yer box is a direct reference to the Australian slang used to scold a seemingly disobedient dog. It articulates control and reminds them of their place. This is where you spend your time; this is where you stay. The animation frames change, silently, at the speed of a ticking clock to step out the futile effort as time passes. Trying to take one step at a time but looping back to nowher...e. Don’t get above your station. http://www.shagsyshags.com.au/about.html Eye Candy Optical YouAreHere See more

21.01.2022 With The unconscious is a rectangle (2016 -ongoing) Tony Curran works between digital and painting. The unconscious uses forms found from life-drawing sittings and remixes different shapes to generate millions of new compositions, suspended between randomness and artistic will. A Walking Exhibition is opening this Wednesday, 6pm, at Anvil Design Studio, as a part of YouAreHere 2017!

19.01.2022 A Walking Exhibition at You Are Here 2017 is opening in 2 days! Check out another work in the show, Heath Franco's TELEVISIONS (2013), a linear exploration across several fictitious television channels - a kind of time-based digital landscape.The 'look' of Australian commercial network television is loosely referenced - it's logos/symbols, jingles, framing techniques, advertisements and media personalities feature in subverted forms.

14.01.2022 A Walking Exhibition is part of You Are Here festival 2017! Have a look at the full program on www.youareherecanberra.com.au

05.01.2022 Nathan Gray, b Works<30s No.12, 2014, video still

04.01.2022 Here's another video still from Works<30 by Nathan Gray (no.30). Works<30s is a series of video experiments using brevity as a strategy to take a simple restriction, a time limit, and uses it to stimulate a variety of surprising and subverting effects. Currently based in Berlin, Nathan Gray has shown at the 19th Biennale of Sydney and the 2012 Tarrawarra Biennale. His work Score for Dance was shown at Open Archive in 2011 and ACCA in 2014, and has had numerous solo shows including Work with Me Here, 2015 at RMIT DesignHub, Things That Fit Together, 2014 at Utopian Slumps. During 2016 Liquid Architecture, Melbourne, The Audio Foundation, Auckland, and North Projects, Christchurch, have presented his recent film The Shakes.
